            Bug ID: 140420
           Summary: JavaScript identifier incorrectly parsed if the prefix
                    before an escape sequence is a keyword
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: JavaScriptCore
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: Tam at SiuLung.com

STEPS:
1. Run "in\u00e9dit = 1" in JavaScript console.

EXPECTED: It sets variable inédit to 1 and returns 1.
ACTUAL: SyntaxError: Unexpected keyword 'in'

This is a result of a minifier trying to convert all code to ASCII.

Chrome 39 and Firefox 34 both work fine.
